Time, effort, and money goes into your training program, but the truth is your employees are forgetting 70% of what they’ve learned within 24 hours.

Even the best e-learning courses can’t make all your training stick and that means your company is losing time and money.

According to a 2016 survey organizations with 1,000 employees waste at least 10,000 hours a year answering questions previously discussed in training.

It’s time for employees to stop forgetting training and start retaining it.

Learn how to:

  • Help your employees retain 90% of their training
  • The most effective delivery strategies to make learning stick
  • How your company can save both money and time by retaining training
